Yes, try eating activated charcoal. It tastes awful and turns everything it touches black, but it won't hurt you and will reduce any problem you have with gas and is frequently given orally in poisoning cases to adsorb the poison (especially if the exact poison is not known and immediate treatment of some sort is needed). However pure carbon can't be digested, so it goes all the way through.

Where do primary consumers get there carbon from?

Primary consumers get their carbon from the plants and other autotrophic organisms that they consume as food. These plants convert carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into organic compounds through photosynthesis, which then gets passed on to the primary consumers when they eat the plant material.


How do animals add carbon to the atmosphere?

Animals add carbon to the atmosphere through processes like respiration, decomposition of organic matter, and methane production. When animals breathe out, they release carbon dioxide into the air. Additionally, when animals die and decompose, carbon is released back into the atmosphere.


Does respiration decrease or increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?

Respiration (breathing) has no effect on the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Breathing is part of the carbon cycle. We take in carbon in our food and drink and we release it again when we breathe. If we eat too much, the extra carbon is stored in our bodies, making us fatter, in much the same way as a tree stores carbon in its wood as it grows.So breathing does not increase or decrease the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.


Describe three places carbon exists in the environment outside of the living environment?

Carbon exists in the atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide (CO2). Carbon can be found in fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas. Carbon exists in the soil, where it plays a crucial role in the carbon cycle through processes like decomposition and soil organic matter.


Summarize the carbon cycle starting and ending with carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.?

The carbon cycle is a process where carbon is removed and returned to the atmosphere. The ways of returning carbon to the atmosphere are- 1. Respiration 2. Decomposition 3. Combustion Ways of removing carbon- Photosynthesis. The CO2 in the air is taken in by green plants for photosynthesis. The green plants die eventually and is decomposed; decomposition return carbon to the atmosphere. Animals respire and return carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. Decomposers respire as well. Green plants can be used to make fuels, which combust to return carbon dioxide to the air.

Where do animals obtain carbon?

From the plants or animals they eat.


Are animals primary consumers of carbon?

Not really, plants absorb the carbon from their surroundings and herbivores eat the plants and take up the oxygen. Then carnivorous animals eat the herbivores and in turn they also take up carbon.


How do living things store carbon?

Carbon, in the form of carbon dioxide, is converted by plants into sugars and starches during photosynthesis. The plants convert this into proteins etc.Animals then eat the plants....when they breath they get carbon dioxideand you get it when you eat a plant


How does carbon get into the herbivore?

The carbon in the plants that herbivores eat is broken down by the gut. This some carbon is returned to environment through exhalation.

What is some interesting info on carbon?

carbon is really cool and can eat all the carbon you want, it is actually one of the only things you should eat because its really healthy for you and can use it on cuts and sores. it is 20$ for a pound of it:))


What converts carbon from both plant and animal sources?

Short answer, an omnivore. Herbivores only eat (covert carbon from) plants, Carnivores only eat animals therefore that's where they get their carbon from. Omnivores like humans, pigs, brown bears etc, eat both plants and animals.


Is there any gas that you eat?

It is possible to breathe in carbon dioxide because if you smoke, you will breathe in carbon dioxide.
